英文版1Chapter 1What is language?AThe origins of language Some speculations of the origins of language:The divine source The basic hypothesis:if infants were allowed to grow up without hearing any language,then they would spontaneously begin using the original god-given language.Actually,children living without access to human speech in their early years grow up with no language at all.The natural-sound source The bow-wow theory:the suggestion is that primitive words could have been imitations of the natural sounds which early men and women heard around them.TheYo-heave-hotheory:the sounds produced by humans when exerting physical effort,especially when co-operating with other humans,may be the origins of speech sounds.Onomatopoeic soundsThe oral-gesture source It is claimed that originally aset of physical gestures was developed as ameans of communication.The patterns of movement in articulation would be the same as gestural movement;hence waving tongue would develop from waving hand.Glossogenetics(言语遗传学)This focuses mainly on the biological basis of the formation and development of human language.Physiological adaptationdevelop naming abilityinteractions and transactions Physical adaptation:Human teeth are upright and roughly even in height.Human lips have intricate muscle interlacing,thus making them very flexible.The human mouth is small and contains avery flexible tongue.The human larynx is lowered,creating alonger cavity called the pharynx,and making it easier for the human to choke on the pieces of food,but making the sound speech possible.The human brain is lateralized.Those analytic functions(tool-using and language)are largely confined to the left hemisphere of the brain for most humans.Two major functions of language:Interactional:a social function of language.Transactional:a function involving the communication of knowledge and informationBThe properties of language Language is asystem of arbitra ry vocal symbols used for human communication.a)System:combined together according to rules b)Arbitrary:no intrinsic connection between the wordpenand the thing in the world which it refers to c)Vocal:the primary medium is sound for all languages d)Human:language is human-specific(交际性与信息性)Communicative vs.Informative:Communicative:intentionally using language to communicate something Informative:through/via anumber of signals that are not intentionally sent Design features(unique properties):the defining properties of human language that distinguish it from any animal system of communicationDisplacement(跨时空性,移位性)Language can be used to refer to contexts removed from the immediate situations of the speaker(refer to past and future time and to other locations)Arbitrariness(任意性)There is no logical or natural connection between alinguistic form(either sound or word)and its meaning.While language is arbitrary by nature,it is not entirely arbitrary.a)echo of the sounds of object sor activities:onomatopoeic words b)some compound wordsProductivity(能产性,创造性)Language is productive in that it makes possible the construction and interpretation of new signals by its users.(Creativity or open-endedness)Cultural transition(文化传递性)While human capacity for language has agenetic basis(everyone was born with the ability to acquire alanguage),the details of any language system are not genetically transmitted,but instead have to be taught and learnt.Discreteness(可分离性)Each sound in the language is treated as discrete.Duality(双重结构性,两重性或二元性)Language is organized at two levels or layers simultaneously.The lower or basic level is astructure of sounds which are meaningless.The higher level is morpheme or word(double articulation)The above six properties may be taken as the core features of human language.Vocal-auditory channel,reciprocity,specialization,non-directionality,or rapid fade,these properties are best treated as ways of describing human language,but not as am eans of distinguishing it from other systems of communication.CThe development of written languagepictograms&ideograms(象形文字和表意文字)Pictogram:when some of the pictures came to represent particular images in aconsistent way,we can begin to describe the product as aform of picture-writing,or pictograms.Ideogram:the picture developed as more abstract and used other than its entity is considered to be part of asystem of idea-writing,or ideogram Hieroglyph:古埃及象形文字Logograms(语标书写法)When symbols come to be used to represent words in alanguage,they are described as examples of word-writing,or logograms.Arbitrariness-a writing system which was word-based had come into existence.Cuneiform-楔形文字-the Sumerians(5000 and 6000 years ago)Chinese is one example of its modern writing system.Advantages:two different dialects can be based on the same writing system.Disadvantages:vast number of different written forms.Syllabic writing(音节书写法)When awriting system employs aset of symbols which represent the pronunciations of syllables,it is described as syllabic writing.The Phoenicians:the first human beings that applied the full use of asyllabic writing system(ca 1000 BC)Alphabetic writing(字母书写法)Semitic languages(Arabic and Hebrew):first applied this rule The Greeks:taking the inherently syllabic system from the Phoenicians via the Romans Latin alphabet and Cyrillic alphabet(Slavic languages)Rebus writing Robus writing evolves aprocess whereby the symbol used for an entity comes to be used for the sound of the spoken word used for that entity.Chapter 2What is linguistics?AThe definition of linguistics Linguistics is generally defined as the scientific study of language.Process of linguistic study:Certain linguistic facts are observed,generalization are formed;Hypotheses are formulated;Hypotheses are tested by further observations;A linguistic theory is constructed.Language is asystem of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.BThe scope of linguistics General linguistics:the study of language as awhole Phonetics:the general study of the characteristics of speech sounds(or the study of the phonic medium of language)(How speech sounds are produced and classified)Phonology:is essentially the description of the systems and patterns of speech sounds in alanguage.(How sounds form systems and function to convey meaning)Morphology:the study of the way in which morphemes are arranged to form words(how morphemes are combined to form words)Syntax:the study of those rules that govern the combination of words to form permissible sentences(how morphemes and words are combined to form sentences)Semantics:the study of meaning in abstraction Pragmatics:the study of meaning in context of use Sociolinguistics:the study of language with reference to society Psycholinguistics:the study of language with reference to the workings of the mind Applied linguistics:the application of linguistics principles and theories to language teaching and learning Anthropological linguistics,neurological linguistics;mathematical linguistics;mathematical linguistics;computational linguisticsCSome important distinctions in linguisticsPrescriptive vs.DescriptiveSynchronic vs.Diachronic The description of alanguage at some point in time;The description of alanguage as it changes through time.Speech and writing Spoken language is primary,not the writtenLangue and parole Proposed by Swiss linguists F.de Sausse(sociological)Langue:refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of aspeech community Parole:refers to the realization of langue in actual useCompetence and performance Proposed by the American linguist N.Chomsky(psychological)Competence:the ideal users knowledge of the rules of his language Chapter 3Phonetics and phonologyAThe definition of phonetics Phonetics:the study of the phonic medium of language:it is concerned with all the sounds that occur in the worlds languages.Articulatory phonetics:the study of how speech sounds are made,or articulated.Acoustic phonetics:deals with the physical properties of speech as sound waves in the air.Auditory(or perceptual)phonetics:deals with the perception,via the ear,of speech sounds.Forensic phonetics:has an application in legal cases involving speaker identification and the analysis of recorded utterances.BOrgans of speech Voiceless:when the vocal cords are spread apart,the air from the lungs passes between them unimpeded.Voiced:when the vocal cords are drawn together,the air from the lungs repeated pushes them apart as it passes through,creating avibration effect.All the English vowels are typically voiced(voicing).The important cavities:The pharyngeal cavity The oral cavity The nasal cavity Lips,teeth,teeth ridge(alveolus),hard palate,soft palate(velum),uvula,tip of tongue,blade of tongue,back of tongue,vocal cordsCOrthographic representation of speech sounds Broad and narrow transcriptions IPA(International Phonetic Alphabet/Association)Broad transcription:the transcription with letter-symbols only Narrow transcription:the transcription with diacritics E.g.:lli:f-a clearl(no diacritic)lbild-a darkl()lhelW-a dentall()pit-an aspiratedph(h)spit-an unaspirated(no diacritic)n5bQtna syllabic nasaln(7)DClassification of English consonants In terms of manner of articulation(the manner in which obstruction is created)Stops:the obstruction is total or complete,and then going abruptly/b,t/d,k/gFricatives:the obstruction is partial,and the air is forced through anarrow passage in the monthf/v,s/z,W/T,F/V,h(approximant)Affricates:the obstruction,complete at first,is released slowly as in fricativestF/dVLiquids:the airflow is obstructed but is allowed to escape through the passage between part or parts of the tongue and the roof of the mouthla lateral sound;rretroflexGlides:w,j(semi-vowels)Liquid+glides+happroximantsNasals:the nasal passage is opened by lowering the soft palate to let air pass through itm,nBy place of articulation(the place where obstruction is created)bilabials:upper and lower lips are brought together to create obstructions/b,w(velar)labiodentals:the lower lip and the upper teethf/vdentals:the tip of the tongue and the upper front teethW/Talveolars:the front part of the tongue on the alveolar ridget/d,s/z,n,l,ralveo-palatals(palato-alveolars):tongue and the very front of the palate,near the alveolar ridgeF/V,t/dpalatal:tongue in the middle of the palatejvelars:the back of the tongue

B:The highest position of the tongue:front,central,back;The openness of the mouth:close,semi-close,semi-open,open;The roundness(shape)of the month(the lips):All the front,central vowels are unrounded vowels exceptBAll the back vowels,exceptA:are rounded vowelsThe length of the sound:long vowels&short vowels Larynx(tense)or(lax)Monophthongs,diphthongs Cardinal vowelsFThe definition of phonology Phonetics is interested in all the speech sounds used in all human languages;how they are produced,how they differ from each other,what phonetic features they possess,how they can be classified,etc.Phonology,on the other hand,is interested in the system of sounds of aparticular languages;it aims to discover how speech sounds in alanguage form patterns and how these sounds are used to convey meaning in linguistic communication.GPhone,phoneme,and allophone Phone:the different versions of the abstract unit phoneme Phoneme:the mean-distinguishing sound in alanguage,placed in slash marks Allophone:a set of phones,all of which are versions of one phonemeGPhonemic contrast,complementary distribution,and minimal pair Phonemic contrast:when two phonemes can occur in the same environments in two words and they distinguish meaning,theyre in phonemic contrast.E.g.pin&bin/p/vs./b/rope&robe/p/vs./b/Complementary distribution:two or more than two allophones of the same phonemes are said to be in complementary distribution because they can not appear at the same time,or occur in different environment,besides they do not distinguish meaning.Minimal pair:when two different forms are identical in every way except for one sound segment which occurs in the same plac ein the strings,the two sounds are said to form aminimal pair.When agroup of words can be differentiated,each one from the others,by changing one phoneme(always in the same position),then all of these words constitute aminimal sets.HSome rules in phonologysequential rules Syllable Onset

effects Assimilation:two phonemes occur in sequence and some aspect of one phoneme is taken or copied by the other E.g.nasalize avowel when it is followed by anasal sound.deletion rule-Elision Definition:t he omission of asound segment which would be present in deliberate pronunciation of aword in isolation E.g.delete agwhen it occurs before afinal nasal consonantISuprasegmental featuresStress Word stress&sentence stress The stress of the English compounds always on the first elementTone Definition:Tones are pitch variations,which are caused by the differing rates of vibration of the vocal cords.Pitch variations can distinguish meaning just like morphemes.Tone language,like Chinese,has four tones.Level,rise,fall-rise,fallIntonation When pitch,stress and sound length are tied to the sentence rather than the word in isolation,they are collectively known as intonation.English:the four basic types of intonation,or the four tones The falling tone,the rising tone,the fall-rising tone,and the rise-fall tone Chapter 4MorphologyAThe definition of morphology Morphology is abranch of grammar which studies the internal structure of words and the rules by which words are forme d.Inflectional morphology Derivational morphology(lexical morphology)Morpheme:the smallest meaningful components of words(A minimal unit of meaning or grammatical function)BFree morphemes&bound morphemes Free morphemes:can stand by themselves as single wordsLexical morphemesn.a.v&functional morphemesconj.prep.art.pron.Bound morphemes:can not normally stand alone,but which are typically attached to another formDerivational morphemes-affix(suffix,infix,prefix)+rootInflectional morphemes8 8types of inflectional morphemes in English

morphs,all of which are versions of one morpheme,we refer to them as allomorphs of that morpheme.FWord-formation processCoinagethe invention of totally new termsBorrowingthe taking over of words form other languages Loan-translation(Claque)a direct translation of the elements of aword into the borrowing language Stand alone to be the opposite of word-formationCompoundinga joining of two separate words to produce asingle form Features of compounds a)Orthographically,a compound can be written as one word,with or without ahyphen in between,or as two separate words.b)Syntactically,the part of speech of the compound is generally determined by the part of speech of the second element.c)Semantically,the meaning of acompound is often idiomatic,not always being the sum total of the meanings of its components.d)Phonetically,the stress of acompound alw ays falls on the first element,While the second element receives secondary stress.Blendingtaking over the beginning of one word and joining it

structure of expressions in alanguage,has avery long tradition.Mental grammar:a form of internal linguistic knowledge which operates in the production and recognition of appropriately structured expressions in that language.Psycholog istLinguistic etiquette:the identification of the proper or best structures to be used in alanguage.SociologistThe study and analysis of the structures found in

alanguage The descriptive approach:analysts collect samples of the language they are interested in and attempt to describe the regular structures of the language at it is used,not according to some view of how it should be used.EStructural and immediate constituent analysis(IC Analysis)Structural analysis:to investigate the distinction of forms(e.g.morphemes)in alanguage IC Analysis:how small
